(NNPA) – The Senate on Friday, December 11, passed the HBCU Propelling Agency Relationships Towards a New Era of Results for Students (PARTNERS) Act, introduced by U.S. Senators Tim Scott (R-S.C.) and Chris Coons (D-Del.).
The bill, previously passed in the U.S. House of Representatives, is now headed to the president’s desk for a signature.
If signed into law, this legislation will strengthen partnerships between federal agencies and the country’s more than 100 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).
The HBCU PARTNERS Act builds on President Donald Trump’s 2017 executive order on HBCUs, according to Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) and Senator Chris Coons (D-DE) noted in a news release.

State revenue losses because of the COVID-19 pandemic may not be as bad as projected, Pasquotankâs lobbyist to the General Assembly said this week.
Jackson Stancil told Pasquotank commissioners that a projected shortfall of between $4 billion and $5 billion will probably be less than that. Stancil said that means Pasquotank and other counties could benefit from the additional money.
Stancil said the shortfall could be smaller because there has been a big jump in internet sales tax revenue as more people shop online because of the pandemic.
âIâm not sure that is accurate right now,â Stancil said of the original predicted shortfall. âWe are not as far behind as once anticipated.â
